keep forgetting to get a good pic of them but I recently imported, and have since fitted some Advan RG 16" alloys a few months back 8-) :jdm: nearly killed me financially :facepalm: but they are what the JUN Prelude ran :twisted:

Image

but more interestingly I fitted the new piston rings the other day
Image

made sure I was oiling them up a bit first, putting them on right and the chocking them the right way according to the marking on the top
Image

and about just over an hour of careful handling, all fitted and ready.
Image

the VHT paint arrived today, so need to prep the block, head and inlet for spraying next....

Great stuff on the internal work you are doing. There is something satisfying about painting a block :twisted:

Are you waiting until the engine is all together and then painting it? Then slip the engine into the bay and still have nice paint?
